The SalesGlobe Signals Economic Forum is for business leaders and executives to hear about key topics from experts and discuss how the macroeconomic signals may impact commercial revenue growth for their businesses.

The Signals Economic Forum is about seeing a bigger, macro view on growth and taking actions that will help you reach your growth aspirations. With this broader, macro view, our focus is on helping executives answer two questions for their businesses:

  1. What Are the Market Signals? Indicators you might watch for your business that may signal what's ahead.
  2. What Does This Mean for Profitable Revenue Growth? Based on the signals, how you may think about growth and the actions you may consider.

Our Next Session – January 30, 2026

Hear live from the Federal Reserve regarding the 2026 Economic Outlook.

In our next session, 6th District Federal Reserve Economist, Brent Meyer will be our guest. We’ll talk with Brent about some big economic indicators, the 2026 economic outlook, what’s on the mind of his boss Fed President Rafael Bostick, and what these indicators may mean for your company.

This will be a fireside chat session where the members can ask questions and get perspectives from Brent and your SalesGlobe hosts, Mark Donnolo and Michelle Seger. We’ll also draw upon SalesGlobe’s insight as a member of the 6th District Federal Reserve Business Inflation Expectations Panel.

We’ll cover topics that include:

  • What the Fed policy makers were thinking with the FOMC interest rate decision.
  • Projections of what may lie ahead for monetary policy.
  • The data center and AI infrastructure boom. See our recent SalesGlobe Signals issue for more details.
  • US cross country migration post-pandemic and what it may mean for business.
  • The unusual cross-directional path of flat labor growth and rising economic growth and the potential impacts of AI on productivity.
  • Member questions on topics of their choice.
